Certified Tajik translation and interpreting in Markham and across Canada, for IRCC and IRB files, the courts, and medical matters, with Tajik and Russian handled together on one record.
Certified Tajik and Russian to English translation of birth, marriage and death certificates, passports, the trudovaya knizhka work book, diplomas and notarial papers, with a certified translator or a sworn affidavit and formatted beside the original.
Tajik is a Persian variety spoken in Tajikistan and written in the Cyrillic alphabet, unlike Iranian Persian and Dari, which use the Perso-Arabic script. Tajik civil records are issued in Cyrillic, frequently alongside Russian, so a single page can carry both and we translate the whole record.
We translate Soviet-era and modern birth, marriage and death certificates, passports, the employment record book known as the trudovaya knizhka, diplomas with their transcripts, and notarial papers. Each translation can be issued by a certified translator or accompanied by a sworn affidavit of accuracy, and we match the transliteration of names to your passport, since Cyrillic names are romanised in more than one way.
We keep the English translation formatted beside the original so an officer can compare a Cyrillic stamp or a Russian entry against it. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, so where a seal is unclear we describe in English what appears on the page.
Every certified Tajik translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet IRCC requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in Markham gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada.

Certified Tajik and Russian translation and translators in Markham for IRCC and IRB files, covering Cyrillic civil records that often carry Russian on the same page. Name transliteration is matched to your passport.
Markham is among Canada's most diverse cities and a major centre of the Chinese Canadian community. Cantonese is the mother tongue of roughly 22 per cent of residents and Mandarin of about 13 per cent, followed by Tamil, and by Persian, Urdu, Tagalog, Gujarati and Punjabi. More than 40 per cent of residents are immigrants, and a large share speaks a non-official language at home.
This diversity creates constant demand for translation and interpreting. Newcomers filing IRCC and permanent residence applications need certified document translation, while Oak Valley Health's Markham Stouffville Hospital relies on interpreters for patient care. The new York University Markham Campus, which opened in 2024, and Seneca Polytechnic serve a multilingual student body. Markham falls under York Region's justice system, where the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Justice, including Small Claims Court, sit at the Newmarket courthouse.
Tajik interpreters in Markham for court, medical and settlement settings, confirmed against the related Dari and Iranian Persian and with any use of Russian noted at booking.
Tajik is close to Dari and Iranian Persian but not identical in vocabulary or pronunciation, so we confirm that a speaker wants Tajik specifically rather than another Persian variety. Many speakers also use Russian, so noting the preference at booking helps us assign the right interpreter.
Our Tajik interpreters work in IRB hearings and IRCC interviews, Canadian court and tribunal settings, hospital and clinic appointments under PHIPA and PIPEDA, and settlement and school meetings, on site in Markham and by phone or video across Canada.
For an in-person assignment in Markham we assign a Tajik interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day.

Tajik is the official language of Tajikistan, with around 8 million speakers. It's a variety of Persian -- closely related to Iranian Farsi and Afghan Dari -- but written in Cyrillic (since the Soviet era) rather than Perso-Arabic script. The Tajik-speaking community in Canada is small, concentrated mainly in Toronto and other large cities. Our Tajik translation work is occasional -- typically IRCC civil documents, academic transcripts, and Central Asian business contracts.
